Dragging super strong spinnerbaits over the boulders which lie in the Uruguay River in the section known as "La Zona" has been the key to landing huge golden dorado the past few years. To my knowledge, there are no store bought spinnerbaits available which can stand up to the viscous strike and pulling power of huge golden dorado. Friend, Sparky Bullock, has designed a spinnerbait just to remedy this issue. Sparky has friends who own a machine shop which are able to work with the extra thick diameter wire which is needed. His design is either a 1 1/2 oz or 2 oz leadhead attached to the wire. An Owner hyper wire split ring is attached to the leadhead then a SPRO Heavy Swivel is attached. The extra strong single hook can then either be attached to the swivel or to another split ring. This enables the hook to rotate during the lure tossing leaps by the golden dorado. This is a huge advantage over a fixed hook. Joe has only been selling these spinnerbaits to a select few. However, he has agreed to sell them to friends of mine.
The spinnerbaits come with choice of blades, blade colors, skirt colors, and leadhead color. For La Zona I highly recommend extra large double willow blades with orange/black skirts either weight. Just drag these spinnerbaits around the boulders during your drift and you might be rewarded with some huge golden dorado over 50 lbs as I was fortune to last year. Musky, big pike, and other monster species should also be fooled by Sparky's spinnerbaits. Contact Joe Bullock at joe@bullock.com and tell him you are a friend of mine!
